Question

Angled Linked images pixelated ONLY on export

Hi, I've been dealing with this for a long time, since export replaced the old "save for web" command.

 

When I have linked images placed at ANY angle different from 0º the exported artboard results in pixelation.

 

This doesn't happen if I use the legacy Save For Web command. This is makes the multiple artboard export completelly useless, because if I want to avoid pixelation, I have to export every artboard individually.

 

This also happens to EMBEDDED images which I don't use since it makes the file size too big and slow.

 

I'm attaching two images of the same file, one was created with EXPORT command and the other with SAVEFORWEB.

Bump. This is still an issue.
Is there a workaround for as long as this problem persists?

What are the anti-aliasing settings when you export? Do you use art optimized?

Different AntiAlias settings, same results...

For me this depended also upon the angles. I had better results with larger angles. But with the 5° the results were bad. But then again: in the public beta this was improved.


For me the public beta made it worse. Art Optimized does not work with jpeg, it looks like Type optimized.

PNG works as expected.
